Do I need hood pins for this panel?

Yes, hood pins are required for secure installation. The FRP hood uses the factory latch and hinge points, but pins add safety and prevent hood lift at speed — especially recommended for street and track use.

Will this hood work with my factory latch and hinges?

Yes. The mounting points align with your factory latching system and hinges, so no modifications to the frame or hinge assembly are needed. Install directly to your existing hardware.

How much lighter is this than the OEM hood?

FRP delivers significant weight savings compared to factory steel. The exact reduction depends on the original hood weight, but the material itself is substantially lighter — a real advantage for handling and fuel economy.
